Well, because we won't be here



  • Found in a UK based comparison website's code:

    [code] _registrationLookup.Add(2008, "57,08,58");
    _registrationLookup.Add(2009, "58,09,59");

    /*
    * We can to the conclusion on 30/08/2007 that we
    * couldn't be bothered extending this to 2010, since were
    * probably not going to be here then... Enjoy!
    */ [/code]

    I'm guessing they're adding to a list for UK number plates.... and maybe tyhey dont know the new 2010's format for number plates?


  • Discourse touched me in a no-no place

    If that's the case, then a simple google search would have provided what appears to be the obvious answer:

    <font size="2">_registrationLookup.Add(</font>2010, "59,10,60");

    At least they left a comment. Here they just leave the timebomb in the code, indirectly telling you to go fuck yourself when one day it goes off and you have to figure out wtf is going on.



  •  To be fair to the developers, they have yet to be proved wrong...



  • We can to the conclusion

    Maybe if you were in their shoes you would have could to the same conclusion too!

    I would have jar to that conclusion.
